Falling in Love with My Contracted Husband - Chapter 89
Chapter 89 Tang Jinchen’s Waiting
After returning to her room, An Zixi heaved a sigh of relief. She raised her eyes to look at this strange and familiar house. How long had she lived here, and with great difficulty, she moved out and actually moved back. Was this the will of heaven?
The heavens had really played a big joke on her, and only then did he return to his original state. She walked over and pulled open the blue curtains. From this angle, she looked like she was looking out of a French window. The scenery was still the same, but everything had changed. She could no longer go back.
That cautious day from before had returned, but this time, she needed to be stronger and braver.
Looking at the familiar big bed, An Zixi did not hesitate and relaxed completely before lying down. The bed was still very big and comfortable. She carefully sniffed the quilt and the smell of the sun. It seemed that the servant knew that she would come back. The quilt had been sun-dried and the sheets had been changed.
An Zixi felt very tired. She closed her eyes, but her mind was full of Tang Jin Chen’s angular face. To tell the truth, she missed him very much. Even though she had only been separated for a while, she had already gone crazy thinking about him. She missed his eyebrows, his teasing smile, his gentleness and tyranny, and even his angry appearance.
However, she was tired and needed to rest. She closed her eyes and opened them again. An Zixi looked at the white ceiling. Many scenes flashed through her mind, but she could not find a scene that could make her happy. In this large room, she had never been happy, not the slightest bit.
Without further thought, An Zixi closed his eyes and fell asleep. When she thought that she would meet Tang Jin Chen tomorrow, her mood was incomparably excited. She had to sleep well before she could face him with the best posture.
In the Tang Corporation, Tang Jin Chen sat at the employees’ workplace early in the morning and waited. His entire body emitted an icy cold aura, and he didn’t know what had provoked him.
The employees in the group were all far away. They didn’t know what had happened to their boss and why their arrogance was so low.
And it’s unthinkable for him to come to their employee studio while he’s not sitting in his CEO’s office.
Some employees even whispered far away.
“What do you think happened to the president? He sat there early in the morning.” Staff A whispered.
“I don’t know. It seems like I’m still in a bad mood.” Employee B secretly glanced at him and said.
“Let’s stay away from him.” Staff C carried the tea and quietly walked to his seat, but his gaze was peeking at Tang Jin Chen.
The supervisor of the company walked over and asked softly, “May I know if President Tang has any advice for our employees?”
The supervisor was a woman with exquisite makeup. She looked around twenty-five years old. She was dressed in a straightforward Xiangfeng work set. She looked charming and dignified.
She seemed to be deliberately squeezing her thin voice as she asked with an indelible smile on her face.
Tang Jin Chen glanced at her and then turned around, “It’s nothing. You can go and do your work.”
When some employees saw that their supervisor was being disliked, they had a sneer on their face. They had always thought that the supervisor was not pleasing to their eyes and had been hooking up with the manager, but now they actually wanted to hook up with the president.
“Sigh, you must have seen the manager’s disdainful expression. What a big heart.” Employee A teased.
“Isn’t that so? I’ve long since found her unpleasing. She has a pair of foxy eyes that are still growing on top of her head.” Employee B said indignantly.
“That’s right, that’s right.” Employee C nodded and said.
“However, our president is really handsome. We are both angry. How could there be such a perfect person in this world? I wonder if he has a girlfriend?” Staff A was dumbfounded again.
“President, you can only think about this.” Employee B poured cold water on her.
Tang Jin Chen sat here, not knowing that his employees had already gossiped about him.
On this side, An Zixi was on her way to the company. She had actually overslept early in the morning. She was so annoyed that she touched her hair that she didn’t have time to comb it. As she hurried, she tried to make it look less irritable.
Sharp high-heeled shoes rubbed her feet as she ran, and more often than not she liked to wear leisure shoes that made her feel relaxed. But she had no choice but to wear such high heels for work.
After patting her face, An Zixi forcefully got out of the car. Last night, she did not sleep well, and now, she did not have enough spirit. Only after entering the elevator and pressing the floor where he was working did An Zixi calm down slightly. He raised his hand and looked at the white watch in his hand. He discovered that the clock was pointing at eight o’clock, and the minute was only pointing at forty minutes. Fortunately, it was only ten minutes late.
She prayed that she would not be scolded by the supervisor and hoped that Tang Jin Chen would not discover her. He suddenly remembered that Tang Jin Chen’s office seemed to be upstairs, so he felt relieved.
An Zixi hurriedly felt the studio and realized that everyone’s gazes couldn’t help but look at her.
She lowered her body apologetically and said to everyone, “Sorry, I’m a little late.”
The employees ignored her and went on with their work. An Zixi had an awkward expression on his face. Thinking of what Tang Jin Chen had told her yesterday, she still had to look for him.
However, Tang Jin Chen sat in his seat. His brows furrowed tightly, and his eyes looked straight at the door like a thousand years of ice. He sat on the sofa beside him, his slender legs resting on the table, showing his arrogant personality. He was waiting for An Zixi to come over and give him a reason.
After Tang Jin Chen saw An Zi Xi’s figure, a trace of thawing appeared in his thousand-year-old ice-like eyes, but his face remained expressionless.
An Zixi was dressed in a black professional suit, and his black high heels were sharp. Although they were different from the elegant and refined ones he had seen in the past, they seemed to have a different flavor.
An Zixi raised her head and saw Tang Jin Chen sitting on the sofa. She was very surprised why she was not in her office, but here.
Tang Jin Chen saw An Zi Xi’s puzzled gaze and gently waved his hand, “Come here.”
The other employees looked at Tang Jin Chen who suddenly spoke in surprise. No matter what, they would never have thought that the president’s words were addressed to An Zi Xi, who had hurried over.
He helplessly walked forward to face Tang Jin Chen, who had a dark face.
“Is this your attitude towards work?” Tang Jin Chen grabbed An Zi Xi’s wrist with his handsome face.
An Zixi frowned and helplessly said, “There was a traffic jam just now.”
“Excuse!” Tang Jin Chen furrowed his brows. Seeing her haggard face, anger surged in his heart. “Could it be that I didn’t let you sleep well when I went back to An Mansion yesterday?”
An Zixi lowered his eyelids slightly, showing a slight weakness. “I’m not used to it when I just got back …”
“What habits are you not accustomed to? Even if you are not accustomed to it, you still have to go to work on
“Then I’m late for bed, so I’m late. I’m sorry, President.” An Zixi said obediently.
“What did you call me?” Tang Jin Chen heard the address again and frowned.
“President” Before she could say anything, An Zixi quickly changed her tone. She shyly shouted, “Jin Chen …”
Only then did Tang Jin Chen stretch his eyebrows and the corners of his mouth became clear.
Everyone who had thought that An Zixi would be finished this time stared with wide eyes in disbelief. Not only was it An Zixi’s address, it also had Tang Jin Chen’s sudden relaxed gaze.
Tang Jin Chen continued with a straight face, “I’ve been waiting for you here for a long time.”
An Zixi looked at Tang Jin Chen in surprise. It turned out that he had waited for too long before he was so unhappy.
She hurriedly pulled her hand and apologetically whispered, “I’m sorry, Jin Chen.”
When Tang Jin Chen heard her apology in a low voice, his heart instantly warmed up.
An Zixi continued, “I’ll accompany you for lunch. Don’t be angry, okay?”
Looking at An Zixi comforting him, he nodded in satisfaction, “Alright.”
An Zixi saw that he finally smiled and said happily, “Then I’ll go to work first. Will you go to work as well?”
“Yes.” Tang Jin Chen stood up as soon as he finished speaking.
Seeing the ambiguity between An Zixi and Tang Jin Chen, the employees of the company understood in their hearts and began to pay attention to this inconspicuous person.
Of course, this was what the employees thought. The two protagonists were still immersed in the matter of being late, unable to extricate themselves.
An Zixi didn’t want to say anything else. A trace of exhaustion appeared on her face. She couldn’t help but be dumbfounded when she saw Tang Jin Chen’s clean black shoes.
However, she suddenly felt that Tang Jin Chen’s anger was very unreasonable. After thinking for a while, An Zi Xi still raised his head and said, “But, this is human nature!”
“An Zixi!” Tang Jin Chen couldn’t help but feel even angrier when he saw her lower her head. Moreover, she actually said such words. She couldn’t see that. Was he very angry? “Move out of the mansion today!”
An Zixi tugged at his lips and raised his head with a fawning expression, “No, I want to go back and live. You promised me.”
Hearing this, Tang Jin Chen only looked at her with a serious expression and didn’t say anything.
“I won’t come to the company so late again. Don’t be angry!”
“Oh? Is that so? Then what do you want to show me?” Tang Jin Chen lowered his head and slowly approached An Zi Xi’s mouth.
An Zixi subconsciously dodged and panicked, “I … I’m in the company, it’s not good …”
“What’s wrong?” Tang Jin Chen seemed to be in a good mood, his eyes still smiling, not as terrifying as before.
An Zixi grabbed Tang Jin Chen’s hand and smiled apologetically, “Are you not angry anymore?”
Tang Jin Chen remained silent and turned to leave. An Zi Xi heaved a sigh of relief. At this moment, a big-mouthed girl saw the interaction between the two of them …
“I thought that An Zixi was really so well behaved. I didn’t expect that he was also seducing the boss!” His big mouth revealed a look of disdain. After Tang Jin Chen and An Zi Xi entered the company, they immediately sneaked into their own department. During the whole day, most of the people in the company knew about Tang Jin Chen’s interaction with An Zi Xi outside the company. Luckily, I slept late in the morning, so I was able to get the news first hand.
An Zixi did not know that the people in the company were already discussing behind her back. He just did his duty seriously and occasionally helped his colleagues do their due diligence. However, recently, there were always people who looked at her strangely and began to avoid her …
More than ever before, there was a sense of rejection and contempt. She naturally had no time to care. An shi had yet to turn the situation around. She only wished she could spare more time to deal with it quickly. However, with An shi’s huge hole, even if Tang shi injected capital, it could only temporarily relieve the financial pressure. To truly reverse the situation, she still needed to truly operate. However, with An shi’s reputation and strength, how could it be said to be easy …
Tang Jin Chen was preparing to attend a party. He seemed to have brought An Zi Xi with him, but in fact, he had already made arrangements.
“What clothes do you want to buy?”
“Whatever …”
Just like that, a new round of discussion started in the company!
“Heavens, I didn’t expect that it was really a fox spirit! It was all bred.”
“She didn’t like it the first day. I didn’t expect it to be this kind of thing.”
“Tsk tsk, people’s hearts are not ancient. I didn’t expect that someone like An Zixi would be willing to make a vase. In the past, it was quite easy to think that she did it …”
“Why do you think? An Zixi is not such a woman!”
“What did you say? XXX saw this with his own eyes!”
An Zixi had never heard of her in the company since she first entered Tang Corporation. Tang Jin Chen had openly brought An Zi Xi into and out of the company. The people in the company saw the two of them following each other like shadows. In the eyes of their colleagues, they were more speculative. After that, the two of them behaved more intimately, while others were more jealous and envious.
Nowadays, the two of them were openly flirting and laughing in the company’s public places. Recently, An Zixi had been spreading a lot of bad news, which made his colleagues who were not very friendly take advantage of this opportunity to play.
An Zixi hadn’t noticed that his current situation in the Tang Clan was even more difficult.
